vinyl-and-tape-manufacturing firm in the '70s. Under the management of
Monty Presky it issued records on its own label, as well as recording and
pressing other people's; most were budget-priced albums of such things as
'Favourite Hymns', 'Children's Favourites' and other middle-of-the-road
items. Damont made few ventures into the singles market; such singles as it
issued were distributed by WEA. There appear to have been just
three of them, in a DMS-5000 series, and they seem to have been released in
1978-79. They were preceded by an EP, the London Philharmonic Orchestra's
rendering of music from 'Star Wars' (DMEP-100;
1977).Thanks to Robert Lyons For The
